Just to add that it does fit my expectations.
Startle factor, then removing noise cancelling headsets and possibly sun/glasses too, putting them somewhere safe then squeezing, pulling, donning and releasing the mask, locating and replacing headset and glasses, locating the mic/oxy switch and checking in with each other before continuing the recall items. The autopilot then has to convert, say, +1500fpm to about -4000fpm at (I think) 0.1g. It all takes time and must be done methodically.
